I’m not embarrassed to say that when I don’t feel well, I get in bed and turn on Family Affair. I’m 55 and it’s still the best show around! It’s so comforting to watch. ❤
Now I don't feel as bad. I'm watching Family Affair now, taking a break from some work. I'm 58 and I feel the same. I started watching the reruns in the early weeks of the pandemic. But as time went on, I noticed that I watched it when I wasn't feeling the best. What you are feeling is the release of oxytocin when you experience nostalgia while watching vintage shows from your childhood. At first, I thought it was my fear of growing old and dying, but that's not it at all.
I have loved this penthouse apartment all my life. The set designers were brilliant. What a magical place. America was so wholesome back in that era. 🌇💜❤️💙

I grew up in NYC in the 1960's and 70's , on the lower East Side of Manhattan and later Queens NY. So for me it was fantasy to live like the twins in such an Apt. thank you so much for brining back such wonderful memories of time long gone. We didn't have much when i was kid, but, we had each other. Miss you Mom and Dad.
I'm glad it brought back good memories! I've made tours of other TV and movie homes. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
I think part of the reason for this program's popularity is that it represents security, the idea that even if something goes wrong, there will be family and people who will step up to take care of children. Whether arguments between parents make children worry that their parents will divorce, or that their mom will die like a schoolmate's mother did, or some other tragedy, children do have security issues. Here, there's not only Uncle Bill, but also Mr. French, both kind and competent, making everything alright again. I used to wish Uncle Bill was my uncle!
FAMILY AFFAIR in the 70s Jody a rock star, Buffy a Photo Journalist Kathy marry one Bill's rich old friend. Bill does production design for all the rock bands playing the Garden. Designing stages based on his work. NYC in the 70s be a show unto itself
I always wished I had a sister like "Sissy". I'm so grateful that Kathy Garver gave me some "normalcy" to look forward to during my childhood. Thanks for posting this Marina!
This channel is so classy. It’s such a nice, calm and quiet place to go for about a half hour. To temporarily live inside those houses I used to visit every week, when I was a small child. Thank you, Marina- and your staff- for providing a place to go that takes us out of today’s craziness.

As a little kid growing up in Ohio in the 1970s, I ALWAYS wanted to live in New York City in Uncle Bill's fabulous apartment! And now ... thanks to you ... I feel like I have! Love this video so much!!! 😊👍❤

Yes !! I would daydream about coming home after school and doing my homework on the balcony. And those double doors. 😃💛💛 It was a much more innocent time.

I'm happy to finally see this episode. This is my all time favorite fictional apartment. It made such an impact on me. Love that you got Kathy Garver on!
What a Wonderful Look back ,Such a Classy Place,People dressed so nice then and The whole atmosphere was so Classy,Kathy Garbor still sounds and looks young ,Wonderful Show!
Family Affair was a favorite show of mine! I even had a Mrs. Beasley doll like Buffy had. Seeing a tour of this and all of the other shows really makes me feel like I walked into the homes. Thanks so much for showing these.
I watch 2 episodes of this show every single night. It's hard to believe how much the children change over the course of the 5 seasons. You could always tell that Uncle Bill LOVED those children! He teared up quite frequently when one of them touched his heart - which was just about every episode. Cannot speak for sure, but I think he had a favored love for Jody. I think they had worked together before this show? Anyway, those were definitely the days!
This swanky apartment was a dream for many of us youngsters growing up at that time. How exciting that you were able to get Kathy Garver to share some memories. I got the privilege of meeting Sebastian Cabot in 1973 when I was ten years old. He and another actor, Lloyd Nolan, were having dinner together at a steak restaurant attached to a bowling alley that my family frequented. The bowling alley manager knew that my sister and I would be excited to meet Mr. French so he privately told us, not wanting to bombard the two gentlemen with fans while they were eating. We went inside and met them, and I got both of their autographs (although I had no idea who Lloyd Nolan was). It was obvious that Mr. Nolan had been drinking quite a bit, but Sebastian Cabot was very friendly and gentlemanly, just like his character. It was such a cool experience for a little kid!
Oh Marina! this is my favorite one. Even over the Bewitched house. You mentioned everything that used to stand out to me about that apartment. The tour experience gave me a feeling of safety and pride. Proud to have come from that time. Kathy Garver was a fantastic addition. I love the tinkly music in the background, made me recall kinder and simpler days. I am so thankful for you!
The problem-solving in this one is masterful! I was very small when I saw this show- I was 3 in 1971 and I watched it in re-runs. I was in love with what I called “The Buffy and Jody Show.” I wanted a big Mrs. Beasley doll so badly! (I had a miniature one.) I haven’t watched it in years and this made me nostalgic to watch it again! Thank you.
I love that you called it "The Buffy and Jody Show!" I have a friend that calls The Andy Griffith Show, "Andy and Mayberry. " And I call King of Queens, "Doug and Carrie." 😊
What a fantastic job you did! Hearing Kathy was a treat, and loved that show! We all love nostalgia and wish at times to go back! Thanks for the memories and can’t wait for the next one!
@@pernelldh I tried. He even agreed. But somehow missed my subsequent emails to set up a Zoom interview. 😪 Major bummer. I would have LOVED to have him on to share stories too. Maybe it will work out when I do the Christmas tour and have the home decorated for the holidays. 🤞
This is one of my favorites ever. Congratulations. What struck me was the serenity of the home. It is not filled with TVs, computers, and every toy in the world. I may just have to de-clutter my house a little. It was lovely to see 'Cissy' and hear her teenager to adult view of things. I was heart-broken when Anissa died so unnecessarily. God rest her soul. Jody was another Beaver Cleaver in some ways. Yes, they were the 'Good Old Days' for sure. I also loved the mid-century color scheme throughout the house. Great job and thank you so much.
Thank you. Glad you liked it. Funny you should bring up the character of Jody being similar to Beaver Cleaver. I was thinking that the writing for the show was similar to Leave it to Beaver, because the laughs were from the situations the kids got in and the way they worded things, rather than punchlines.
One good episode when Buffy gets to see the circus in the family living room ... cheered her up . May Brian Keith , Sabastian Cabot , and Anissa Jones RIP .💐🌷🌻🌺🌼🌹
You did an amazing job, again, Marina! Wow, I thoroughly enjoyed this, and great to have Kathy Garver give some commentary! I loved the show, and the cast, and of course the luxurious apartment! Thank you for another great tour! 😊
Thank you for uploading this, Miss Coates! My friend turned me on to "Family Affair", and I tried to record all of the episodes from the wonderful Decades Channel - So colorful, such a spread of a home, such "Life's Lessons" to learn! I agree with Miss Katherine Garver about EVERYTHING - ESPECIALLY this world being SO CHAOTIC now - I MISS THE WAY THINGS USED TO BE! 🙂🙂🙂
I absolutely loved this one. Family Affair is one of my all time favorites. I always loved Uncle Bill’s apartment. Thank you for so many views and details …loved that Kathy Garver was a part of this! Your videos keep getting better and better. As someone who loves home decorating and loved these classic tv shows and movies, I always look forward to a new video from you. You’re a favorite ! Other classic tv shows homes I would love to see are: Courtship of Eddie’s Father, That Girl, Nanny and The Professor, and the original Bob Newhart Show. One kind of out of the box would be Starsky and Hutch apartments. Others Bonanza, Family Ties and Eight is Enough. Movie ones: You Got Mail ( Kathleen Kelly’s apartment), Christmas Vacation, Mary Poppins ( The Banks’ house), and The Sound of Music Thank you for all you do to bring these to us!
@@lindyf3318 Funny you should mention Mary. That's the next one I'm doing. I'll be adding Rhoda's apartment and WJM. I needed to redo it anyway. It was one of the first ones I did when I was just learning the software.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane This is all good news (although I didn't know Mary's apartment needed redoing- I'm sure as the artist, you're aware of tweaks you want to make. I'm excited about Bob Newhart, Rhoda's apartment, and WJM. Bonanza, Eight is Enough, and The Sound of Music are some of my favorites of Lindy's suggestions.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane I love when you add scene shots of the show for the room as well, I’m excited to see Mary and Rhoda’s apts :) Don Drappers Apartment from Mad Men is beautiful, I’d love to see that done too :)
Me too! It held up well too. I would happily move in as is. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
I was one of subscribers who kept pestering you for Family Affair lol... And you did not disappoint! This has to be my favourite upload. Unlike Bewitched and Jeannie, this was not a magic-based show but boy did it have a magic all is own. Thank you Marina!
Thank you! I had fun doing it. And, of course, was thrilled to get an interview with Kathy Garver. That was the icing on the cake. Nothing like getting stories first hand from someone that was there.
I have made many other homes too. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber

You're welcome. I love making these tours. This was one of my favorite shows growing up too. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
One of my favorite shows growing up. If I had the money I would build a home following this type of design because it reminds me of my home growing up. I love the colours and use of wood because it made the home very cozy as I remember my home. Many of the 70's homes I loved because they were in the same era, like the Brady Bunch, Courtship of Eddies Father, Mary Tyler Moores apartment etc.
Yes, I think the colors and the woods are a big part of the warmth and charm. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
Love it! Thank you for keeping iconic architecture and classic design alive. You are the keeper of mid century America - thank you for your dedication and excellent work.
Regularly watched this show, with my 2 older sisters. Always liked Brian Keith. Admittedly never thought too much about their apartment but nonetheless I enjoyed the videos are sooooo cool. Brings back lots of memories.
It’s amazing that as soon as I started watching your video, I could immediately hear the Family Affair theme song in my head! It’s amazing how visuals can conjure up a long forgotten memory. Another great step back into the 60’s! Thank you for the interview too. 💗
Wow!! Can you imagine $85-95,000/mth! Uncle Bill was loaded! Absolutely loved this tour! Thank you SO much for your efforts. It is so appreciated. I’d love to see Sound of Music house! I’d also be interested in the Cosby house, Fresh Prince of Belair, Fraiser (love Fraiser’s apt, but how mysterious is Niles’ house??), and how about Happy Days/Lavern &Shirley!? So many possibilities!! ❤️❤️
@@julier.1902 I actually "visited" Frziser's apartment as part of a Paramount Studio tour. I had won a radio station contest to the Nick at Nite TV Land premiere, and has a blast. I remember thinking that Faiser's apartment looked smaller than it appeared on tv. I also learned that the parting of the Red Sea in the 10 Commandments was filmed in a parking lot at the studio. My sister in law and I shared a limo back to our hotel with the Petticoat Junction sisters. What lovely ladies they were! I know this is a long shot, but I would love to see you do a rendtion of the house from The Farmer's Daughter. It was one of my favorite shows growing up. I know you can view most of the episodes on the William Windom Tribute RUclips channel. I love your renditions!
I have made many other homes too. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
Wow, you really brought their apartment to life. I watch this show almost every day, the kids were adorable and loving and kind. Cissy was the best big sister always caring for her little sister and brother. Great work, thank you so much, I love their home.
I loved this Marina!! You did an awesome job once again. I just finished watching all 5 seasons of this show and I still love Uncle Bill's apartment. I just knew there had to be another bathroom somewhere for the kids because I just couldn't see them using Uncle Bill's tub every night! LOL! Thanks for bringing back so many good childhood memories!
This one was super complicated. Not just a whole warren of rooms, but all of those odd angles. It's the most difficult one you have tackled as yet. But it came out very cohesive. Love the floor plan. The kids lucked out with Uncle Bill. Huge place to live, with servants, and a nice uncle. It was special having Kathy Garver, too. Can't believe they had to buy their own clothes. You did well with the art works. Hope some of my ideas helped. Thanks again.
Thank you. Glad you liked the tour. Having Kathy's interview was great. Thanks for helping look for the artwork. I wish we could have found some of the ones from the show. Maybe next time.
This was great! I've watched this show so many times over the years, but most of these details got past me. I really enjoyed seeing the apartment in all its glory. And Kathy Garver's narration added an extra dimension to the video. Excellent video!
I just loved watching Family Affair,just get all excited of the beginning of series with theme music and who would forget the Jewels sparkling ,moving around. All of the Characters of the show I just miss them. Thanks for this video,it brings back memories.
Glad it brought back good memories for you. It did for me too as I made it. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
What a special talent you possess to bring these movie and television homes to life. Thank you so very much. I hope someday you can get around to showcasing the beautiful home featured in "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner." THAT is my dream home! Wishing you great success.. Take care.
That is one of my absolute favorites. I just watched the movie again recently and turned to my husband and said - Well, I'm definitely going to do this home! The patio and view from the patio are also amazing.
I just love this channel! It's wonderful! Did you ever think of doing the Lucy and Ricky Riccardos Connecticut home? That was such a great house but we only saw very limited room views.
Wow. Just amazing! I loved that home. My favorite was the living room with the beautiful fireplace and extended base that became planters. The patio was an extension of that living space. The tactful and balanced use of wood and stone throughout was just beautiful. The detail that went into that set was absolutely breathtaking. You did such a great job with this video. You’re work is beyond excellent. Thank you!👍🏼👍🏼
You described it perfectly! I should have had you help with the script. 😉 You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
Wonderful, loving your videos they are all exemplary and full of fantastic information. We would love it if you would do the Golden Girls home and the homes from Frasier. Thank you for putting in such extensive effort in all of your videos. Warm wishes.
I loved this! I always loved that apartment and to see it showcased like this meant alot! Saying THANK YOU is not enough to let you know I appreciated this!
II'm 60 years old and this is one of my favourite childhood TV series. It was synchronised by German actors as all foreign movies are here but it still was THE USA for us kids back in the day. Thank you for bringing these memories back. TV wasn't a big thing in my childhood. There were only 4 channels and only 6 hours of program on workdays, on Sundays it was like 10 hours. We spent most of our time playing outside or doing chores and homework, so watching a program was a Family Affair in itself. We all sat together watching, except for Mum who was always busy. I remember Dad trying to explain that this was a very rich and privileged American family and most people in the USA would live a much different life but I loved the characters and their home, I wouldn't care. At that age, in my opinion Americans lived either like Uncle Bill or like Hoss Cartwright... 😂
Love it! Thanks for sharing your memories. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
Yes! I met Red Fox, back in the day in Las Vegas in the elevator. My heart dropped! As it did when I met John Wayne in the elevator in Houston, Tx....he was on a gurney enroute for heart surgery, Dr. Michael DeBakey was his cardiologist. He was also my father's.
I love the fact about the square footage and monthly rent in today’s dollars. I have been trying to figure that out for years. Thanks again for the great job.
I would still LOVE to have an interview with you too. I'm sorry it didn't work out. Maybe when I do the Christmas tour later this year with the home decorated for the holidays? 🤞 I know viewers would love that.
With so many perverts in Hollywood, I just felt in my heart that Brian Keith not only was not one of them, but must have really loved children in real life. I'm glad that I was right. Fantastic actor who is greatly missed.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane There was a movie that he played in where him and his partner were the bad guys. I don't recall the name of the movie. I did not like seeing him as the bad guy at all. I do wish they would show reruns of Hardcastle and McCormick. I haven't seen that show since it originally aired.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane before I forget, I wanted to ask if I'm the only one who sees a resemblance between the kid who played Jody and Brian Keith. Whoever did the casting on that show did a fantastic job. You would swear that that kid was his real life son instead of his fictitious nephew.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane thank you and ABSOLUTELY look 4WD to it because I ❤ NEW YORK 🌃 even though I never visited there, but would REALLY like to.
Wow!..here I am, binge watching the show, after seeing it as a kid in the 70's, and "boom"!...here comes Marina with this awsome bonus!...adding a whole new level and layer of enjoyment to my viewing experience!...kudos to you!
Glad you liked it. I have made many other homes too. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
It began the year before I was born-I would have been around four when it ended. I have vague recollections of Jody and Buffy. I always had a “crush” on Uncle Bill. But mostly what I remember is my own Mrs. Beasley, which I still have today. She’s one of two dolls I’ve had for as long as I have memory. Thank you for the fun tour!
Awesomejob, as always, Marina! And what a treat to see Miss Garver! She hit it right on the head: shows like Family Affair, Leave It To Beaver, The Andy Griffith Show and others are nothing less than emotional comfort food in a mad world starving for a little gentleness and kindness, whereas so much of today’s programming consists of nothing but empty calories often leaving a sour or bitter taste behind. Thanks so much to you and Miss Garver! Wishing you both a happy and blessed Easter!
Great work again. So well done. I was always floored by this amazing home (and the middle-of-the-door knobs). I remember when Jody asked the roaming violinist at the French restaurant if he knew "Turkey in the Straw" and the way the kids pronounced their Indiana home town "Terra-HUT." I've never been there, so I don't know if that's how they really pronounce it :) Kathy is beautiful as always. I know it isn't always the case (everyone is different), but I'm happy to see stars of old shows look back with a general fondness for the experience. It's not surprising her story about Brian Keith's acting style. I always appreciated how it seemed he was never in a hurry and the show allowed him to go at his own pace. As a fan of Rifftrax (if you don't know, look it up), I recently saw Johnny in a movie from 2013 called "A Talking Cat!?!" It was fun to see him again. Thank you for doing this.
I love this series. Thanks for taking us on the tour. As a kid watching the show, I loved the coziness of the apartment & of course, those doors. Seeing Kathy was so special, she was my favorite character. I thought she was so pretty & I always loved her look; more grown up than Buffy & Jody but still young. It was wonderful to go back for a visit. I agree with her thoughts on why the show was loved; it was warm & friendly & felt like a safe place & it was the relationships that really stick out in my mind.
This is absolutely wonderful. Thank You and Thanks to Kathy Garver for taking the time to join in. I never noticed how many built in cabinetry were in this apartment. I see too how Jody’s room was a storage closet. It didn’t have a walk-in closet but built cabinets. As a new home sales broker we all know closets are what make the bedroom a bedroom. Great job I thoroughly enjoyed watching. I always thought if I could live in a TV show home it would be Bewitched, along with many more people but now I think this would be my dream home…and I’m a country girl. You definitely showed things I would never thought of especially the back elevator.
Loving this channel, I just discovered it. It’s not as classic as some of the one’s you’ve done, but how about Frasier’s apartment. I’ve always liked that one.
Wow, it was great to see the whole penthouse displayed out. A great video and thank you for taking the time to do these iconic homes from our childhood shows.
Thank you! I'm now completely convinced (after this and the Parent Trap tour) that the reason I loved Brian Keith so much was because of the set designers in his movies.
Splendid job . I even love the music on the tours . There are a couple of of ones : Collinwood from the original Dark Shadows ( 1966 - 1971 ) . The 2 Barnaby homes ( one - Tom Barnaby / the other - John Barnaby ) from the Midsomer Murders . Thank you kindly .
I watched this show as a kid in reruns, I don't remember it except I remember watching it a lot, so I must have liked it. I understand the confusion regarding piecing together floor layouts with only pictures to reference, I've done the same at my job many times. Excellent work, thank you.
Glad you liked the tour. I'm curious what do you do for your work. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
This was amazing. I loved every moment of it. This apartment is so beautiful. Sometimes I had dreams of living in there if I were to have lived in New York. It was so good that I went to watch a couple of episodes of Family Affair. It's been too long since I've seen episodes. 2 years!!!!
Great job. I always loved Kathy Garver as Cissy, she was one of the most likable characters on a TV family show, and I still enjoy watching Family Affair to this day. I suspect Kathy herself is just as nice as Cissy.

I’m not embarrassed to say that when I don’t feel well, I get in bed and turn on Family Affair. I’m 55 and it’s still the best show around! It’s so comforting to watch. ❤
Same! 😂😍
Now I don't feel as bad. I'm watching Family Affair now, taking a break from some work. I'm 58 and I feel the same. I started watching the reruns in the early weeks of the pandemic.

Family Affair was a favorite show of mine! I even had a Mrs. Beasley doll like Buffy had. Seeing a tour of this and all of the other shows really makes me feel like I walked into the homes. Thanks so much for showing these.
Thank you so much. I so loved them, all of them. I can hear Jody saying "But Uncle Bill" in his sweet little voice right now.
Yes! One of my favorite things. It was adorable the way he said it.
I watch 2 episodes of this show every single night. It's hard to believe how much the children change over the course of the 5 seasons. You could always tell that Uncle Bill LOVED those children! He teared up quite frequently when one of them touched his heart - which was just about every episode. Cannot speak for sure, but I think he had a favored love for Jody. I think they had worked together before this show? Anyway, those were definitely the days!
It’s interesting to see those ‘60s-70s homes with that cool modernism yet they balance it with art and symbolic things. Cheers, thanks, nicely done!!
It's so well done. Kudos to the set designers.
This swanky apartment was a dream for many of us youngsters growing up at that time. How exciting that you were able to get Kathy Garver to share some memories.
I got the privilege of meeting Sebastian Cabot in 1973 when I was ten years old. He and another actor, Lloyd Nolan, were having dinner together at a steak restaurant attached to a bowling alley that my family frequented. The bowling alley manager knew that my sister and I would be excited to meet Mr. French so he privately told us, not wanting to bombard the two gentlemen with fans while they were eating. We went inside and met them, and I got both of their autographs (although I had no idea who Lloyd Nolan was). It was obvious that Mr. Nolan had been drinking quite a bit, but Sebastian Cabot was very friendly and gentlemanly, just like his character. It was such a cool experience for a little kid!
Wow. What an experience. 😊
Stately Wayne Manor on "Batman" (1966-1968) including Barbara Gordon's apartment in the third and final season of the series.
Oh Marina! this is my favorite one. Even over the Bewitched house. You mentioned everything that used to stand out to me about that apartment. The tour experience gave me a feeling of safety and pride. Proud to have come from that time. Kathy Garver was a fantastic addition. I love the tinkly music in the background, made me recall kinder and simpler days. I am so thankful for you!
Glad you enjoyed this one.😊
The problem-solving in this one is masterful! I was very small when I saw this show- I was 3 in 1971 and I watched it in re-runs. I was in love with what I called “The Buffy and Jody Show.” I wanted a big Mrs. Beasley doll so badly! (I had a miniature one.) I haven’t watched it in years and this made me nostalgic to watch it again! Thank you.
I love that you called it "The Buffy and Jody Show!" I have a friend that calls The Andy Griffith Show, "Andy and Mayberry. " And I call King of Queens, "Doug and Carrie." 😊
What a fantastic job you did! Hearing Kathy was a treat, and loved that show! We all love nostalgia and wish at times to go back! Thanks for the memories and can’t wait for the next one!
Thank you. As you can probably imagine, I was thrilled when Kathy agreed to do it. And she was so generous with her time and had such great stories.
It would have been nice to have Johnny Whitaker a.k.a. Jody Davis to talk about his days on Family Affair as well.
@@pernelldh I tried. He even agreed. But somehow missed my subsequent emails to set up a Zoom interview. 😪 Major bummer. I would have LOVED to have him on to share stories too. Maybe it will work out when I do the Christmas tour and have the home decorated for the holidays. 🤞
I loved watching this♥️
@@lynnmckenna9934 I'm so glad. 😊
This is one of my favorites ever. Congratulations. What struck me was the serenity of the home. It is not filled with TVs, computers, and every toy in the world. I may just have to de-clutter my house a little. It was lovely to see 'Cissy' and hear her teenager to adult view of things. I was heart-broken when Anissa died so unnecessarily. God rest her soul. Jody was another Beaver Cleaver in some ways. Yes, they were the 'Good Old Days' for sure. I also loved the mid-century color scheme throughout the house. Great job and thank you so much.
Thank you. Glad you liked it. Funny you should bring up the character of Jody being similar to Beaver Cleaver. I was thinking that the writing for the show was similar to Leave it to Beaver, because the laughs were from the situations the kids got in and the way they worded things, rather than punchlines.
One good episode when Buffy gets to see the circus in the family living room ... cheered her up . May Brian Keith , Sabastian Cabot , and Anissa Jones RIP .💐🌷🌻🌺🌼🌹
You did an amazing job, again, Marina! Wow, I thoroughly enjoyed this, and great to have Kathy Garver give some commentary! I loved the show, and the cast, and of course the luxurious apartment! Thank you for another great tour! 😊
Thank you!
Thank you for uploading this, Miss Coates!
My friend turned me on to "Family Affair", and I tried to record all of the episodes from the wonderful Decades Channel -
So colorful, such a spread of a home, such "Life's Lessons" to learn!
I agree with Miss Katherine Garver about EVERYTHING -
ESPECIALLY this world being SO CHAOTIC now -
I MISS THE WAY THINGS USED TO BE!
🙂🙂🙂
I'm glad you enjoyed it. And I'm glad your friend got you interested in "Family Affair." Succh a great show.
I absolutely loved this one. Family Affair is one of my all time favorites. I always loved Uncle Bill’s apartment. Thank you for so many views and details …loved that Kathy Garver was a part of this! Your videos keep getting better and better. As someone who loves home decorating and loved these classic tv shows and movies, I always look forward to a new video from you. You’re a favorite !
Other classic tv shows homes I would love to see are: Courtship of Eddie’s Father, That Girl, Nanny and The Professor, and the original Bob Newhart Show. One kind of out of the box would be Starsky and Hutch apartments. Others Bonanza, Family Ties and Eight is Enough. Movie ones: You Got Mail ( Kathleen Kelly’s apartment), Christmas Vacation, Mary Poppins ( The Banks’ house), and The Sound of Music
Thank you for all you do to bring these to us!
Thank you. You're in luck. I plan on doing a lot of those. I'm doing Bob Newhart this September in time for its 50th anniversary .
Yay!!!! After Mary Tyler Moore Show ( and I love your Mary apartment normal and at Christmas ) Bob Newhart is my 2nd favorite comedy!
@@lindyf3318 Funny you should mention Mary. That's the next one I'm doing. I'll be adding Rhoda's apartment and WJM. I needed to redo it anyway. It was one of the first ones I did when I was just learning the software.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane This is all good news (although I didn't know Mary's apartment needed redoing- I'm sure as the artist, you're aware of tweaks you want to make. I'm excited about Bob Newhart, Rhoda's apartment, and WJM. Bonanza, Eight is Enough, and The Sound of Music are some of my favorites of Lindy's suggestions.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane
I love when you add scene shots of the show for the room as well, I’m excited to see Mary and Rhoda’s apts :)
Don Drappers Apartment from Mad Men is beautiful, I’d love to see that done too :)
I would love to see the Family Ties home (and Dennis the Menace)!
Thank you for this video!
😊
I was a little kid when this show was on, I always thought their apartment was so glamorous!
Me too! It held up well too. I would happily move in as is.

My daughter first doll was ms Beasley and she still has it and she is 54
She loved this show
I was one of subscribers who kept pestering you for Family Affair lol... And you did not disappoint! This has to be my favourite upload. Unlike Bewitched and Jeannie, this was not a magic-based show but boy did it have a magic all is own. Thank you Marina!
I'm glad it lived up to what you were hoping for. 😊
When we were kids, my siblings and I always said "Uncle Beeeel" the way Buffy and Jody said it.
It is pretty cute.
My cousins had an Uncle Bill. To me he was "Dad".
You did another fantastic job. I loved this show as a kid and still do.
Thank you! I had fun doing it. And, of course, was thrilled to get an interview with Kathy Garver. That was the icing on the cake. Nothing like getting stories first hand from someone that was there.
One of my favorite shows when I was a kid was "Lost In Space". That would be a unique "house" tour.
Interesting idea. I've had others request that too.
I have made many other homes too. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
Thank you! With all of the strife in the world, this brings me a wonderful sense of comfort and nostalgia. Thank you for sharing and for researching for us to enjoy!
I love hearing that. Kind of sums up what Kathy said in the video about why the show still has such appeal.
This was one of my favorite TV shows during the 60s as a child 11-15 …….Thankyou
You're welcome. I love making these tours. This was one of my favorite shows growing up too.

Absolutely appreciate you. I still watch this show often and I was born in 59. Thank you Marina.
Glad you liked this tour. I sure had fun making it. And, was so excited to get the interview with Kathy!
One of my favorite shows growing up. If I had the money I would build a home following this type of design because it reminds me of my home growing up. I love the colours and use of wood because it made the home very cozy as I remember my home. Many of the 70's homes I loved because they were in the same era, like the Brady Bunch, Courtship of Eddies Father, Mary Tyler Moores apartment etc.
Yes, I think the colors and the woods are a big part of the warmth and charm.

Love it! Thank you for keeping iconic architecture and classic design alive. You are the keeper of mid century America - thank you for your dedication and excellent work.
Thank you! Glad you're liking the episodes.
Regularly watched this show, with my 2 older sisters. Always liked Brian Keith. Admittedly never thought too much about their apartment but nonetheless I enjoyed the videos are sooooo cool. Brings back lots of memories.
Loved this show. The apartment looked so elegant.
Yes, the ultimate apartment for sure.
I grew up watching Family Affair. I loved their apartment and the show in general. Thanks for the video!!!
😊
It’s amazing that as soon as I started watching your video, I could immediately hear the Family Affair theme song in my head! It’s amazing how visuals can conjure up a long forgotten memory. Another great step back into the 60’s! Thank you for the interview too. 💗
I was so happy to get that interview! What a treasure trove of memories.
Your channel is simply beautiful!
Thank you. I'm glad you're enjoying it. 😍
You are such a burst of fresh air in all of our lives!!
Aw! Thank you. 😊
Wow!! Can you imagine $85-95,000/mth! Uncle Bill was loaded!
Absolutely loved this tour! Thank you SO much for your efforts. It is so appreciated.
I’d love to see Sound of Music house! I’d also be interested in the Cosby house, Fresh Prince of Belair, Fraiser (love Fraiser’s apt, but how mysterious is Niles’ house??), and how about Happy Days/Lavern &Shirley!? So many possibilities!! ❤️❤️
You are naming quite a few on my list. 😊
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane Yes, the Frasier apartment. Quite fancy, to be sure.
@@julier.1902 I actually "visited" Frziser's apartment as part of a Paramount Studio tour. I had won a radio station contest to the Nick at Nite TV Land premiere, and has a blast.
I remember thinking that Faiser's apartment looked smaller than it appeared on tv.
I also learned that the parting of the Red Sea in the 10 Commandments was filmed in a parking lot at the studio.
My sister in law and I shared a limo back to our hotel with the Petticoat Junction sisters. What lovely ladies they were!
I know this is a long shot, but I would love to see you do a rendtion of the house from The Farmer's Daughter. It was one of my favorite shows growing up.
I know you can view most of the episodes on the William Windom Tribute RUclips channel.
I love your renditions!
Thank you! This was wonderful. I have always been fixated on this apartment!
So glad you liked it!
Uncle Bill had Class! Love the subtle details! Those kids had it good!!
He sure did!
I have made many other homes too. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
Oof. Yes my dream apartment ever since I was Buffy's age. Seeing it like this, it's wonderful. Thank you!
Thank you. Glad you liked the tour.
Wow, you really brought their apartment to life. I watch this show almost every day, the kids were adorable and loving and kind. Cissy was the best big sister always caring for her little sister and brother. Great work, thank you so much, I love their home.
It is a great show!
I loved this Marina!! You did an awesome job once again. I just finished watching all 5 seasons of this show and I still love Uncle Bill's apartment. I just knew there had to be another bathroom somewhere for the kids because I just couldn't see them using Uncle Bill's tub every night! LOL! Thanks for bringing back so many good childhood memories!
I'm glad it brought back good memories! It did for me too.
Forgot how awesome the apartment was especially that patio! ❤️
I did too! It blew me away.

This one was super complicated. Not just a whole warren of rooms, but all of those odd angles. It's the most difficult one you have tackled as yet. But it came out very cohesive. Love the floor plan. The kids lucked out with Uncle Bill. Huge place to live, with servants, and a nice uncle. It was special having Kathy Garver, too. Can't believe they had to buy their own clothes. You did well with the art works. Hope some of my ideas helped. Thanks again.
Thank you. Glad you liked the tour. Having Kathy's interview was great. Thanks for helping look for the artwork. I wish we could have found some of the ones from the show. Maybe next time.
This was great! I've watched this show so many times over the years, but most of these details got past me. I really enjoyed seeing the apartment in all its glory. And Kathy Garver's narration added an extra dimension to the video. Excellent video!
Glad you liked the tour!
I just loved watching Family Affair,just get all excited of the beginning of series with theme music and who would forget the Jewels sparkling ,moving around. All of the Characters of the show I just miss them. Thanks for this video,it brings back memories.
Glad it brought back good memories for you. It did for me too as I made it.

Incredible job. You are so precise :)
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed this one. Having the interview with Kathy made it extra fun to do.
What a special talent you possess to bring these movie and television homes to life. Thank you so very much. I hope someday you can get around to showcasing the beautiful home featured in "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner." THAT is my dream home! Wishing you great success.. Take care.
That is one of my absolute favorites. I just watched the movie again recently and turned to my husband and said - Well, I'm definitely going to do this home! The patio and view from the patio are also amazing.
How utterly DELIGHTFUL!!!!! 💖💖💖💖

Did you ever think of doing the Lucy and Ricky Riccardos Connecticut home?
That was such a great house but we only saw very limited room views.
I am absolutely going to do that one! I love that home.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane Thats Great!! Thank you!!
Wow. Just amazing! I loved that home. My favorite was the living room with the beautiful fireplace and extended base that became planters. The patio was an extension of that living space. The tactful and balanced use of wood and stone throughout was just beautiful. The detail that went into that set was absolutely breathtaking. You did such a great job with this video. You’re work is beyond excellent. Thank you!👍🏼👍🏼
You described it perfectly! I should have had you help with the script. 😉

Wonderful, loving your videos they are all exemplary and full of fantastic information. We would love it if you would do the Golden Girls home and the homes from Frasier. Thank you for putting in such extensive effort in all of your videos. Warm wishes.
Thank you!
I loved this! I always loved that apartment and to see it showcased like this meant alot! Saying THANK YOU is not enough to let you know I appreciated this!
😊
Been waiting for this one!
It took a LOT longer to create than I thought. It's huge.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane It was worth the wait!
II'm 60 years old and this is one of my favourite childhood TV series. It was synchronised by German actors as all foreign movies are here but it still was THE USA for us kids back in the day. Thank you for bringing these memories back. TV wasn't a big thing in my childhood. There were only 4 channels and only 6 hours of program on workdays, on Sundays it was like 10 hours. We spent most of our time playing outside or doing chores and homework, so watching a program was a Family Affair in itself. We all sat together watching, except for Mum who was always busy. I remember Dad trying to explain that this was a very rich and privileged American family and most people in the USA would live a much different life but I loved the characters and their home, I wouldn't care. At that age, in my opinion Americans lived either like Uncle Bill or like Hoss Cartwright... 😂
Love it! Thanks for sharing your memories.

I love that show. Have you thought about doing Sanford and son?
Oh, yes! I plan on it. And I've had a lot of requests for it too. 😊
Yes! I met Red Fox, back in the day in Las Vegas in the elevator. My heart dropped! As it did when I met John Wayne in the elevator in Houston, Tx....he was on a gurney enroute for heart surgery, Dr. Michael DeBakey was his cardiologist. He was also my father's.
Thank you for doing this tour. Family Affair was one of my favourite shows growing up. I am so glad this tour is now available. Excellent job.
Thank you! It took me forever. After I figured out the sq ft, I knew why. It's HUGE.
I love the fact about the square footage and monthly rent in today’s dollars. I have been trying to figure that out for years. Thanks again for the great job.
@@BarbB315 Uncle Bill must have been doing alright.
Thanks I would love a tour of the tv show "Family"
I've had a lot of requests for that home. And I do plan on doing it some day.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane great. The real one is in south Pasadena on Milan ave. I have not been inside
I agree. Family.
WOW!! How cool. When I saw your other works, I didn't know how perfect this would become. Great Job!!
Thank you!
I would still LOVE to have an interview with you too. I'm sorry it didn't work out. Maybe when I do the Christmas tour later this year with the home decorated for the holidays? 🤞 I know viewers would love that.
With so many perverts in Hollywood, I just felt in my heart that Brian Keith not only was not one of them, but must have really loved children in real life. I'm glad that I was right. Fantastic actor who is greatly missed.
I loved him in every role he ever played.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane There was a movie that he played in where him and his partner were the bad guys. I don't recall the name of the movie. I did not like seeing him as the bad guy at all.
I do wish they would show reruns of Hardcastle and McCormick. I haven't seen that show since it originally aired.
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane before I forget, I wanted to ask if I'm the only one who sees a resemblance between the kid who played Jody and Brian Keith. Whoever did the casting on that show did a fantastic job. You would swear that that kid was his real life son instead of his fictitious nephew.
Speaking of TV New York apartments, you should even post a tour of the Kramer apartment of my favorite movie drama, Kramer vs Kramer(1979).
That's a good choice!
@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane thank you and ABSOLUTELY look 4WD to it because I ❤ NEW YORK 🌃 even though I never visited there, but would REALLY like to.
Wow!..here I am, binge watching the show, after seeing it as a kid in the 70's, and "boom"!...here comes Marina with this awsome bonus!...adding a whole new level and layer of enjoyment to my viewing experience!...kudos to you!
Yay! Love when that happens.
Fantastic tour thanks
Glad you liked it. I have made many other homes too. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
This is my FAVORITE one you have ever done. I love it. Thanks for creating it.
It began the year before I was born-I would have been around four when it ended. I have vague recollections of Jody and Buffy. I always had a “crush” on Uncle Bill. But mostly what I remember is my own Mrs. Beasley, which I still have today. She’s one of two dolls I’ve had for as long as I have memory. Thank you for the fun tour!
How fun for you! I never had the doll, but loved the show.

Awesomejob, as always, Marina! And what a treat to see Miss Garver! She hit it right on the head: shows like Family Affair, Leave It To Beaver, The Andy Griffith Show and others are nothing less than emotional comfort food in a mad world starving for a little gentleness and kindness, whereas so much of today’s programming consists of nothing but empty calories often leaving a sour or bitter taste behind. Thanks so much to you and Miss Garver! Wishing you both a happy and blessed Easter!
I like how you carried the analogy further - empty calories. 🙂
I think the den has a real family feel to it. I picture Bill Davis, Cissy, Buffy & Jody, and Mr. French becoming a family in this room.
Glad you liked the tour.

Great work again. So well done. I was always floored by this amazing home (and the middle-of-the-door knobs). I remember when Jody asked the roaming violinist at the French restaurant if he knew "Turkey in the Straw" and the way the kids pronounced their Indiana home town "Terra-HUT." I've never been there, so I don't know if that's how they really pronounce it :) Kathy is beautiful as always. I know it isn't always the case (everyone is different), but I'm happy to see stars of old shows look back with a general fondness for the experience. It's not surprising her story about Brian Keith's acting style. I always appreciated how it seemed he was never in a hurry and the show allowed him to go at his own pace. As a fan of Rifftrax (if you don't know, look it up), I recently saw Johnny in a movie from 2013 called "A Talking Cat!?!" It was fun to see him again. Thank you for doing this.
Thank You Marina, Your thoughtful intelligence is comforting, as are these enduring vintage shows. Inspiring design ideas!
Glad you liked the tour. You can see all of the other TV and movie home tours I've made here: ruclips.net/user/MarinaCoavideos?view_as=subscriber
Brilliant. I was surprised at the sheer, unabashed joy I felt watching this. Thank you.
Yay! I love that.
Beautiful job loved seeing this I watch Family Affair daily seeing Kathy Garver was a real treat many thanks look forward to the next one :-)
I'm glad you're enjoying the tours. 😊
I love this series. Thanks for taking us on the tour. As a kid watching the show, I loved the coziness of the apartment & of course, those doors. Seeing Kathy was so special, she was my favorite character. I thought she was so pretty & I always loved her look; more grown up than Buffy & Jody but still young. It was wonderful to go back for a visit. I agree with her thoughts on why the show was loved; it was warm & friendly & felt like a safe place & it was the relationships that really stick out in my mind.
It was a comforting show. 😊
This is absolutely wonderful. Thank You and Thanks to Kathy Garver for taking the time to join in. I never noticed how many built in cabinetry were in this apartment. I see too how Jody’s room was a storage closet. It didn’t have a walk-in closet but built cabinets. As a new home sales broker we all know closets are what make the bedroom a bedroom. Great job I thoroughly enjoyed watching. I always thought if I could live in a TV show home it would be Bewitched, along with many more people but now I think this would be my dream home…and I’m a country girl. You definitely showed things I would never thought of especially the back elevator.
Good point about the closet in Jody's room. I hadn't thought of that.
Loving this channel, I just discovered it. It’s not as classic as some of the one’s you’ve done, but how about Frasier’s apartment. I’ve always liked that one.
Thank you. I'll definitely be doing Frasier in the future. 😊
It's so good to see Kathy Garver ( Cissy ) on the tour show . She looks marvelous through the years after Family Affair ended .
I agree. I was very lucky to get her on the show.
Wow, it was great to see the whole penthouse displayed out. A great video and thank you for taking the time to do these iconic homes from our childhood shows.
I couldn't wait to get this one done so I could walk the halls.
Beautifully done! Thank you, Marina. Hello Kathy.
Thank you. Wasn't Kathy's contribution great? I was so happy she agreed to do that. It made this one extra special.

@@MarinaCoatesMockingbirdLane Thank you dear Marina.🌞💞🌞
Thank you! I'm now completely convinced (after this and the Parent Trap tour) that the reason I loved Brian Keith so much was because of the set designers in his movies.
He did luck out. The ranch house on The Parent Trap is my all-time favorite movie home 😍
Wow - that was a trip back to my childhood memories....... Thanks - Great Work !!!!
Glad you liked it. 😊
Splendid job . I even love the music on the tours . There are a couple of of ones : Collinwood from the original Dark Shadows ( 1966 - 1971 ) . The 2 Barnaby homes ( one - Tom Barnaby / the other - John Barnaby ) from the Midsomer Murders .
Thank you kindly .
Thank you for the suggestions. And glad you like the tours.
I watched this show as a kid in reruns, I don't remember it except I remember watching it a lot, so I must have liked it. I understand the confusion regarding piecing together floor layouts with only pictures to reference, I've done the same at my job many times.
Excellent work, thank you.

This was amazing. I loved every moment of it. This apartment is so beautiful. Sometimes I had dreams of living in there if I were to have lived in New York. It was so good that I went to watch a couple of episodes of Family Affair. It's been too long since I've seen episodes. 2 years!!!!
It is an amazing apartment! Glad you enjoyed the tour.
This is the biggest surprise of all your tv & movie homes.
@@DebraRakestraw-x7b You've got me curious. What was the surprise?
Always watched to see how Cissy/Kathy. I knew that voice on 'Clear Caption' before I saw her! Thanks for this, and for Kathy!!
I was so happy to get an interview with Kathy! And I loved how she had great stories for every question. She was good with on-the-spot answers.
Great job. I always loved Kathy Garver as Cissy, she was one of the most likable characters on a TV family show, and I still enjoy watching Family Affair to this day. I suspect Kathy herself is just as nice as Cissy.
Thank you. I agree, Kathy seems to be a genuinely nice person.
